Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
Its /bin/sh builtin ‘test’ command does not support -e.
* autogen.sh, build-aux/git-hooks/pre-commit:
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog, make-dist:
Use test -r, not test -e.
Problem reportyed by Phillip Lord.
* admin/update_autogen, autogen.sh, build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog:
* configure.ac, make-dist:
Do not require that .git be a directory, as 'git worktree' makes
it a file and not a directory.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog: Ignore all merges from gnu.org,
not merely those from master and emacs-NN. The ChangeLog entries
they generate are not that useful.
POSIX says that ‘echo FOO’ produces implementation-defined output
if FOO contains leading ‘-’, or ‘\’ anywhere, so don’t assume GNU
behavior in that case.
* Makefile.in (removenullpaths): Remove.
(epaths-force): Rewrite to avoid the need for ‘echo’.
(install-etc): Be clearer about escaping the shell metacharacters
‘\’ and ‘$’.
* Makefile.in (install-arch-indep, install-etcdoc):
* admin/charsets/mapconv, admin/merge-gnulib, admin/merge-pkg-config:
* admin/quick-install-emacs, build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog:
* configure.ac, lib-src/rcs2log, make-dist:
* src/Makefile.in (lisp.mk):
Don’t assume ‘echo’ outputs ‘\’ and leading ‘-’ unscathed.
For example, use ‘printf '%s\n' "$foo"’ rather than ‘echo "$foo"’
if $foo can contain arbitrary characters.
* lisp/Makefile.in (TAGS): Use ‘ls’, not ‘echo’, to avoid ‘\’ issues.
* doc/lispref/two-volume.make (vol1.pdf):
* test/etags/make-src/Makefile (web ftp publish):
Use ‘printf’ rather than ‘echo -e’.
That way, 'make change-history' needs to change only ChangeLog.2,
instead of having to change two files.
* ChangeLog.2: Add commit info for range that this file covers.
* Makefile.in (new_commit_regexp): New macro.
(change-history-nocommit): Simplify, by putting what used to be
the gen_origin value into the data (ChangeLog.2) rather than
into the program (gitlog-to-emacslog).
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog (gen_origin): Calculate from
the input file (e.g., ChangeLog.2) rather than by having a
constant in the program. Substitute it into the output.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog: Add command-line options.
By default, refuse to remove an existing output file.
* Makefile.in (CHANGELOG): Update default.
(ChangeLog): Do not test for existing file.
(change-history-nocommit): Ensure temp file does not exist.
* Makefile.in (gen_origin): Move to gitlog-to-emacslog.
(emacslog): New variable.
(ChangeLog): Use $emacslog. Don't pass $gen_origin.
(unchanged-history-files): Use $emacslog rather than Makefile.in.
(change-history-nocommit): Store hash in $emacslog.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog (gen_origin): Move default here.
* admin/update_autogen (changelog_files): Update for the above.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog: Use ChangeLog.1, not Makefile.in,
for copyright notice prototype, so that we get a proper "coding:"
cookie. Use 'mv -i' to avoid unconditionally overwriting an
existing ChangeLog. Problems reported by Eli Zaretskii in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-04/msg00504.html
* .gitignore: Add 'ChangeLog'.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-changelog: New file, from Gnulib.
* build-aux/gitlog-to-emacslog: New file.
* CONTRIBUTE: Document the revised workflow.
* Makefile.in (clean): Remove *.tmp and etc/*.tmp*
instead of just special cases.
(CHANGELOG_HISTORY_INDEX_MAX, CHANGELOG_N, gen_origin): New vars.
(ChangeLog, unchanged-history-files, change-history)
(change-history-commit): New rules.
* admin/admin.el (make-manuals-dist--1):
Don't worry about doc/ChangeLog.
* admin/authors.el: Add a FIXME.
* admin/make-tarball.txt:
* lisp/calendar/icalendar.el:
* lisp/gnus/deuglify.el:
* lisp/obsolete/gulp.el:
* lwlib/README:
Adjust to renamed ChangeLog history files.
* admin/merge-gnulib (GNULIB_MODULES): Add gitlog-to-changelog.
* admin/notes/repo: Call it 'master' a la Git, not 'trunk' a la Bzr.
Remove obsolete discussion of merging ChangeLog files.
New section "Maintaining ChangeLog history".
* build-aux/git-hooks/pre-commit:
Reject attempts to commit files named 'ChangeLog'.
* lib/gnulib.mk, m4/gnulib-comp.m4: Regenerate.
* make-dist: Make and distribute top-level ChangeLog if there's a
.git directory. Distribute the new ChangeLog history files
instead of scattered ChangeLog files. Distribute the new files
gitlog-to-changelog and gitlog-to-emacslog.
